One More Chance
Deitrick Haddon · Church On The Moon [2011]
Yeah, oh, yeah, yeah
Yeah, oh
Can You give me just one more chance?
Can You give me just one more chance
All I'm asking for is one more chance
I'm just a dead man walkin', I've got nothing to lose
Tomorrow is not promised, might as well tell the truth
Truth is I always loved Ya, my pride got in the way
Gotta get this off my chest, I pray it's not too late
You gave me everything, everything I needed and more
I saw You reaching for me, that's when I slammed the door
But look at me now, I'm just a mess
And I must confess
I cried all day, prayed all night
I'm willing to make all my wrongs right
One more chance
Can You give me one more chance?
Can You give me one more chance?
I have refused to go to my grave
Knowing that I treated You this way
One more chance
Can You give me one more chance?
Can You give me one more chance?
I'm just a dead man walkin', just hear me out
I'm askin' for forgiveness that I can't live without
Truth is I don't deserve it, I should be locked away
Throw away the key, never see the light of day
Oh, but they can't judge me 'cause I judge myself
And I surrender, I'm in need of help
I need You to see me, I have learned my lesson
Here it is Lord, this is my confession
I cried all day, prayed all night
I'm willing to make all my wrongs right
One more chance
Can You give me one more chance?
Can You give me one more chance?
I have refused to go to my grave
Knowing that I treated You this way
One more chance
Can You give me one more chance?
Can You give me one more chance?
I lied, I cheated
When I should have fought for love, I retreated
Then I placed the blame on You
Broke the ways that I was through
Looking out for me, left my responsibilities
You tried, then I knew it
But all along I knew what I was doin'
The life I thought I had I lost it
I'm cleanin' up my closet
How could I be so cold
Have mercy on my soul
One more chance, one more chance
Just one, just one, just one, just one
Just one, just one, just one, just one
One more chance, one more chance
Just one, just one, just one, just one
Just one, just one, just one, just one
I cried all day, prayed all night
I'm willing to make all my wrongs right
I have refused to go to my grave
Knowing that I treated You this way
Give me one more chance
Yeah, oh
Can You give me just one more chance?
Can You give me just one more chance
All I'm asking for is one more chance
I'm just a dead man walkin', I've got nothing to lose
Tomorrow is not promised, might as well tell the truth
Truth is I always loved Ya, my pride got in the way
Gotta get this off my chest, I pray it's not too late
You gave me everything, everything I needed and more

Can You give me one more chance?
